Grid stress happens in 200 milliseconds. Your response should too.
Voltpathio reads real-time grid signals and shapes your building loads before demand charges stack — automatically, without degrading tenant comfort.
One 15-minute window sets your demand charge for the entire month
Utility demand charges are billed on your single highest 15-minute kW interval each billing period. That one reading can account for 30–40% of your total electricity cost — and it's usually driven by a transient event: a cloud bank dropping solar output, simultaneous HVAC startup across floors, or an EV charging cluster ramping up at noon. The charge crystallizes the moment the interval closes. You can't dispute it; you can only prevent it.
Voltpathio monitors your ISO market's real-time stress index and your building's BMS telemetry simultaneously. When the model predicts a peak in the next 45 minutes, pre-approved load-shaping commands go to your HVAC and lighting systems before the window opens — not after.
From grid signal to load action in one platform
Pull live ISO/RTO grid stress signals, weather data, and your building's BMS telemetry at 1-second resolution.
ML models forecast your 15-minute demand peak with 94% accuracy up to 45 minutes ahead.
Issue pre-approved load curtailment and HVAC pre-conditioning commands across your portfolio instantly.
Built for operators who live in the grid
Direct integration with PJM, MISO, CAISO, SPP, and ERCOT real-time market APIs.
Coordinate load curtailment across 1 or 100 buildings from a single pane.
Hard temperature limits and tenant-SLA rules prevent overrides that degrade occupancy experience.
Know your bill impact three weeks before the meter reads. Intervene before the peak crystallizes.
Native adapters for Siemens Desigo, Honeywell Niagara, Johnson Controls Metasys, and Schneider EcoStruxure.
Push curtailment events to your own SCADA/CMMS or pull telemetry into your energy analytics stack.
What early operators are saying
"We shaved 26% off demand charges across eight Class A offices in the first billing cycle. The comfort guardrails were the deciding factor — our facilities team never fielded a single tenant complaint about HVAC."
"Cloud cover was our biggest exposure — a 30% solar output drop during peak occupancy would cost us $4,000 on the demand line. Voltpathio's 40-minute irradiance warning gives us time to pre-condition before the draw hits."
